What is a "bone"?
A bone is a hard, dense tissue that forms the structural framework of the body. It provides support, protection, and mobility for various body parts. Bones are made up of calcium, phosphorus, and other minerals, giving them strength and durability. They also contain bone marrow, where blood cells are produced. Bones come in various shapes and sizes and are interconnected to form the skeleton, which serves as the body's framework.
